Lakme Eyeconic Kajal in Brown | Review & Swatches

As always, this kajal comes in a black retractable pencil with the shade name written at the bottom in a sea-green strip. The shade name isn’t color-coded so identifying the shade is time-consuming. The cap shuts tight and there’s no chance of it recklessly opening. You can always toss it inside the purse!

Needless to say, ‘Brown’ is a typical brown shade with ash tones. It’s like a flawless brown shade for captivating eyes. It’s intensely pigmented and lines the eyes in one swipe. Its texture is creamy thus, it glides easily without tugging. It’s smudge-free so it doesn’t get rubbed away (if you have the habit of rubbing eyes). On dusky skin tone, it may take 2 swipes to completely show. I don’t use it on my waterline but below it as it gets easily smudged away. Its staying power is impressive as it stays on my oily eyelids for at least 5-6 hours and after that, it smudges and transfers onto my under-eye area. A smart idea is to apply brown eyeshadow upon the kajal if you have oily eyelids and it won’t smudge and stay for long. You will need a makeup remover or simply use coconut/olive/almond oil to remove it. It can also be used in combination with black kajal to give a smokey look to the eyes. It’s an excellent shade for everyday wear, be it night or day.

Swatches:

Pros:

Pretty shade apt for any occasion be it night or day
Affordably priced
Has a creamy texture that glides smoothly on eyes
Smudge-proof finish
Stays for a long period of time

Cons:

Doesn’t stay on the waterline for long.

Final Word: I like this ashy brown shade that adds instant serenity to my eyes and looks perfect for an everyday look. It has a soft texture that is smudge-proof and stays up to 5-6 hours easily. I recommend this kajal as it will look smokin’ hot on every skin tone.

Rating: 4.5/5
